Palo Santo Smudge Sticks Bundle

Palo Santo, translated as “holy wood” in Spanish, is a tree that is widely distributed throughout Central and South America. Palo Santo is typically used in South America in a similar way as White Ceremonial Sage is used in North America to combat negative energy and to cleanse the space and aura. Palo Santo is different than many of the other smudging materials as it is fragrant in its raw form and does not necessarily need to be lit, though should be when used for ceremonial purposes. Palo Santo is often used by Amazonian shamans in sacred plant spirit ceremonies, as the rising smoke of the lit sticks is believed to enter the energy of ritual participants to clear misfortune, negative thoughts and to chase away evil spirits. Its use reportedly dates back to the Inca era. Bundle of 4.
